Creating a front for a pyramid scheme that is widely known for being dangerous to your health and predatory is deceitful and quite frankly, not okay. Such a shame. I was so excited to find a new small business to support and now I realize I just wasted a bunch of money...

Unfortunately they're not good. We ordered 3 different "shakes". They were all very bland with a very chalky texture.

All 3 of us felt nauseous and I personally had horrible indigestion after only a few sips. The reviews and pics looked nice and we were looking for a great alternative to a treat, but this is...
